Prediction: 1-2
Blackburn
Following a goalless draw with Luton Town, Blackburn Rovers will look to return to winning ways in the Championship when they take on Swansea City at Swansea.com Stadium on Saturday afternoon. The Riversiders are eyeing automatic promotion to the Premier League, but the will have to be their sharpest in the remainder of the season if they are to turn the dream into reality.
Midfielder Tayo Edun, who limped off with injury in the last league match, is unlikely to feature against Swansea City, while Ben Brereton Diaz is a major doubt after representing Chile in the 2022 World Cup qualifiers. The Swans, on the other hand, suffered yet another dip in form. Considering that the Welsh outfit failed to impress in back-to-back losses to Hull City (0-2) and Luton Town (0-1), we believe that there is a big value in betting on the promotion-chasing visitors. Russell Martin should have a full squad to choose from.
Highlighted Player (Korey Smith):
After spending his youth career at Norwich City, Korey Smith made his first-team debut for the Canaries in January 2008 in the FA Cup clash against Charlton Athletic.

Korey Smith was born in Hatfield, England and he has two younger sisters, Alice and Harriet.
